Error Installing PERL modules "unrecognized command line option -fstack -protector"
unrecognized command line option "-fstack-protector" error usually comes on Cygwin when installing PERL modules. For example when installing the DBI module or DBD::MySQL perl module, the following error comes on cygwin :

This error is due to older version of GCC in your system. The stack protector was introduced as of GCC 4. Look the version in your system by running
gcc -v.
Update your system if you are using cygwin run setup.exe and from the package list check GCC4, as shown below.
(Search for GCC)
Now try reinstalling the PERL module, everything should be fine. :)

Thank you!
Thank you! Ran into this issue when trying to install the DBI module, which is required by the git-p4raw project.
Hopefully this keyword-stuffing will help others in my situation find this on Google :)
Wonderful
Great to know people find the post. I had a bad time searching for its solution. :)Fixed the issue
Thank you!
Thanks for this
Thanks very much for this solution. I did know that there was a version compliance problem, but I am pretty dumb to figure out how to exactly resolve the problem :)
